Pattern description
This 60x60 stitch counted cross-stitch design features a full-bloom red rose rendered in bold, saturated tones that practically glow against the cream background. The composition centers on the coral-red flower head surrounded by rich forest-green foliage and buds in complementary olive and yellow-gold hues, creating a striking jewel-box aesthetic. Working with 13 DMC thread colors at intermediate skill level, stitchers will encounter varied color transitions that bring dimension and depth to both petals and leaves, making this pattern rewarding for those ready to move beyond beginner projects.
Stitch planning checklist
- Measure your fabric against the stitch count to confirm finished size.
- Sort floss by symbol before you start; pre-thread a few needles for speed.
- Work in small blocks to keep counting accurate and spot mistakes early.
- Backstitch at the end of each session so outlines stay crisp.
